# '''Tally 1 point for each "Prefer"''' for each candidate.
# Out of the candidates (if any) with no more than 50% "Reject", find the one with the most points. '''For every ballot which doesn't "Prefer" this frontrunner, add 1 point for each "Accept".'''
# Out of the candidates (if any) with no more than 50% "Reject", find the one with the most points. '''For every ballot which doesn't "Prefer" this frontrunner, add 1 point for each "Accept".'''
# If the frontrunner changed, add 1 for each "Accept" that's not yet tallied (the ones which "Prefer" the original frontrunner). '''Most points wins.'''
# If the frontrunner still has the most points, they win. Otherwise, the winner is the candidate with fewest "Reject" ratings.


Note that the procedure above will always elect a candidate with no more than 50% "Reject", if any exist. This is because, if any exist, one of them will be the frontrunner, and they will thus score points equal to at least 50% of the voters.
